The title says it all. 100 songs that where and still are among the greatest songs of all time but during the years ended up being the most boring ones. And that is because we heard them over and over again for a reason that is not unexplainable.  If someone is to blame, it’s radio producers, TV commercials and venue dj’s, who for some weird reason always preferred to play Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid” than “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath” or “Fairies Wear Boots”. The same happened with Deep Purple’s “Smoke On The Water”, Rolling Stones “Paint It Black”, Gun’s N Roses “Sweet Child O Mine” and so many others. Superb songs all of them- but dear god, I can’t hear them anymore.

So, I have tried to remember all the songs from the 60s and onwards that have been trapped in the boredom universe.
